Hat trick

From Tapped, a story about Illinois GOP Senate candidate Jack Ryan. His wife’s suing for divorce. Why? Because — she says — he three times took her on “surprise trips” to sex clubs and she didn’t wanna:

Respondent asked me to perform a sexual activity upon him and he specifically asked other people to watch. I was very upset. [...] People were having sex everywhere. I cried. I was physically ill. Respondent became very upset with me and said it was not a ‘turn-on’ for me to cry.

His unlucky wife’s name? Jeri Ryan. Yes, that Jeri Ryan.

Sex, politics, and a sci-fi angle; it’s the ultimate weblog post!

As I read the article, she sued for divorce, and got it, something in the range of five years ago. The reason that this stuff is in the news now is that they unsealed the testimony, despite objections of both parties, because he's a candidate for public office.

That’s what I get for zipping ahead to the racy bits.

Truth is, I saw the story somewhere else, which probably had a more complete version of the story; looking at the actual link you used, there isn't much in the way of background information there.
